Finished Week 3 now. Slow progress with me old knees.just taking it easy. I'd graduate last year but for various reasons didn't consolidated/ improve. Looking to do better this year. By graduation I still wasn't hitting 5k, which wasn't a problem as many people advised thatmy did not...however I kept rocking up at parkruns and panicking after about 3 mins and slowing to a walk .So just plodded on walking a lot and running a bit. So I am a slow coach but would just like to see a little improvement... So I want to get a sub50! Just for me. So I have re-commenced C25K just to try and get stronger again and get a wee bit of self confidence back. I just wish I could lose some weight, maybe that would help too. Anyways I'm not posting after every run... Just popping in to say hi from time to time.

Hi you! So good to hear from you. You know the drill, slow and steady. It's one of the wonderful things about c25k, once you've done it, it's always there for you (and so are all the lovely peeplings on here). Hope it goes well for you and great to hear from you 😘

Great seeing your back on Forum again MotherPip

Good luck with your revisited C25K, the advantage being that you have done it before so know what's round the next corner (so to speak!) 8-)
